... The accuracy to which you can trust the absolute flux calibration of your STIS spectroscopic data at slit center is limited by several factors including: . The accuracy of the absolute sensitivity calibration of the grating and central wavelength setting. ... The STIS spectrum of this star is then extracted over a standard aperture extraction box and the sensitivity required to return the known flux from the star is determined as a function of wavelength. ...

... The Palomar Testbed Interferometer (PTI) is a 110-meter baseline K-Band infrared interferometer located at Palomar Mountain, California. In 1999 an effort was started to provide more observer-friendly observation planning and monitoring tools, such as might be used in NASA interferometer missions. This session illustrates how these prototype tools aid in the observation of spectroscopic binary stars. ...

Next: Reducing 3-mm ATCA observations Up: Reducing 12-mm ATCA observations Previous: Loading data into Miriad: . For 12-mm data, calibration is essentially identical to the centimetre bands. Primary flux calibration can be done using gpboot and observations of 1934-638, in much the same fashion as at the lower frequencies. 1934-638 is about 1 Jy at 12-mm wavelengths: the Miriad calibration software contains a built-in model of 1934-638's change of flux density with frequency. ...

Next: Data reduction Up: Spectral observations and data Previous: Observations with the KPNO . Follow-up spectroscopy with this telescope was conducted as a back-up for a main program which needed photometric conditions. So, the observations presented here were obtained in non-photometric conditions and the absolute flux calibration of the data is unreliable. The Cassegrain focal reducer CAFOS of the 2.2m telescope was used with a long slit of 300 3 and a grism of 187 ? ...

... The first step to improve the FORS calibration is therefore to obtain data to allow a computation of the illumination correction across the field. ... Another limitation on the calibration accuracy has been the brightness of the Landolt standards which have forced the use of extremely short exposures introducing small but non-negligible shutter-time errors and also resulting in a very small number of useful standards per frame. ...
